Abstract:ADVANCES IN MICROCOMPUTERS AND VIDEO STORAGE TECHNOLOGY HAVE MADE FEASIBLE MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS IN SYSTEMS FOR ADMINISTERING PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS. IN RESPONSE TO THE REQUEST FOR COMPUTERIZED PSYCHOMETRIC INSTRUMENTS BY THE NIMH IN THE SBIR OMNIBUS SOLICITATION, AMERICAN INNOVATION, INC. PROPOSES TO… more

Abstract:MORPHOMETRIC TECHNIQUES ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY INDISPENSABLE IN MANY FIELDS INCLUDING MICROANATOMY, PATHOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY. COMPUTER BASED MORPHOMETRY SYSTEMS GREATLY FACILITATE THE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS OF THE LARGE VOLUMES OF DATA REQUIRED FOR A MEANINGFUL STATISTICAL ANALYSIS. SYSTEMS OF… more

Abstract:THIS PROJECT INVOLVES A NEW APPROACH FOR A LOW POWER FOURIER TRANSFORM PROCESSOR. AN ALGORITHM WHICH REQUIRES NO MULTIPLICATIONS IN THE FOURIER TRANSFORMATION HAS BEEN DEVELOPED. IT IS TO BE IMPLEMENTED AND TESTED IN THIS PROGRAM. THE ALGORITHM IS WELL SUITED FOR REAL-TIME SPECTRAL ANALYSIS AT… more

Abstract:THE APPLICANT PROPOSES TO UTILIZE ITS PATENTED X-RAY DETECTION TECHNIQUE AND ITS EXTENSIVE PATENTED AND PROPRIETARY DIGITAL DATA-HANDLING TECHNIQUES TO BUILD AN X-RAY MAMMOGRAPHIC IMAGING SYSTEM WHICH WILL PRODUCE DIAGNOSTIC IMAGES THAT MATCH OR EXCEED THE INFORMATION CONTENT OF EXISTING TECHNIQUES… more

Abstract:CURRENTLY, AIRLINE AND MILITARY AIRSPACE USERS DO NOT HAVE COORDINATED NOR CONSISTENT METHODS OF GENERATING FLIGHT PLANS (PRE-FLIGHT ROUTE STRUCTURE DEFINITION). SOME USE ANTIQUATED METHODS OF ROUTE GENERATION. SOME USE WEATHER DATA OVER 24 HOURS OLD. NONE ACCOUNT FOR THE POSSIBLE EXISTENCE OF AN… more

Abstract:A NEW CAPABILITY FOR THE PREDICTION OF AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISITIC OF POWERED-LIFT VEHICLES IS THE GOAL OF THISPROJECT. A PRESENTLY AVAILABLE AERODYNAMIC ANALYSIS COMPUTERCODE, VSAERO, IS APPLICABLE TO POWERED-LIFT AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATIONS. THE PROGRAM INCLUDES A METHOD WHICH CAN TREAT THE DIFFICULT… more

Abstract:SUBSONIC AND TRANSONIC AERODYNAMIC ANALYSIS PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED FOR APPLICATION TO CIRCULATION CONTROL AIRFOILS. WHILE THESE METHODS PERFORM WELL IN COMPARISON WITH EXPERIMENTS FOR LOW BLOWING COEFFICIENTS, AT HIGH BLOWING COEFFICIENTS, WITH THE NOZZLES CHOKED AND PRODUCING UNDEREXPANDED… more

Abstract:SEAFLOOR DEPOSITS OF COBALT-RICH FERROMANGANESE CRUST WITHIN THE U.S. EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE OFFER A POTENTIAL NEW MINERAL RESOURCE FOR STRATEGIC METALS. EVALUATION OF THESE DEPOSITS IS A PRIME OBJECTIVE OF CURRENT AND PLANNED DEPARTMENT OF INTERIOR RESEARCH EFFORTS. PRESENT CRUST SAMPLING DEVICES… more

Abstract:THE UNDERLYING LEARNING CURVE (ULC) ANALYSIS TECHNIQUE CAN OFFER SUBSTANTIAL BENEFIT TO PERSONNEL INVOLVED WITH EVALUATIN OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS. USE OF THE TECHNIQUE IS IMPEDED BY THE AMOUNT OF COMPUTATION REQUIRED AND BY THE LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONCEPT BY USERS.… more

Abstract:HANDS-OFF AUTOMATION OF DISPLAYS WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE EFFICIENCY OF COMPLEX MAN-MACHINE SYSTEMS THROUGH REDUCTION OF OPERATOR WORKLOAD AND OPTIMIZATION OF OPERATOR INFORMATION PROCESSING. COMBINATION OF A VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM WITH A NON-INSTRUSIVE EYE POSITION INDICATOR WOULD PROVIDE… more

Abstract:TESTS OF VISUAL FUNCTION SERVE AS AN IMPORTANT INDEX OF AVIATORS' VISUAL ABILITIES. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE MANY TESTS OF VISUAL ABILITY, THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN COLLECTED IN A SINGLE VOLUME BUT ARE SCATTERED IN VARIOUS TEXTS AND JOURNALS. A CATALOGUE OF VISION TESTS, CONTAINING A DESCRIPTION OF EACH TEST,… more

Abstract:THIS PROJECT WILL INVOLVE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTER PROGRAM WHICH WILL ENABLE PROGRAM OFFICES TO PERFORM SCHEDULE ASSESSMENTS. THE MODEL WILL BE DEVELOPED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF SCHEDULING OF AIRCRAFT ENGINE PRODUCTION PROGRAMS. THE COMPUTER PROGRAM WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN A USER FRIENDLY MODE AND… more

Abstract:THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED PROGRAM IS THE ULTIMATE DEVELOPMENT OF A PRACTICAL WEARABLE AIR POWER SUPPLY FOR AN IMPLANTED PNEUMATIC ARTIFICIAL HEART. THE PROPOSAL ADDRESSES ITSELF TO THE CONCEPT OF A WEARABLE POWER SUPPLY FOR A PNEUMATIC HEART THAT HAS BEEN IMPLANTED IN AN AMBULATORY… more

There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.

Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.

Search for Either Criteria

When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.

Narrowing the Search Results

You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
